This weekend I am planning to do the initial 600 mile service on my 2014 CB1100. Ferret’s How-To thread on this 600 mile service is a big help but I have a question on chain adjustment. If my chain needs adjusting, do I need to loosen both left and right axle nuts and then turn the each adjustment bolts equally? This sound the most logical but I have also read that all I need to do is just loosen the right axle nut (27 mm) and just turn the right adjustment bolt.
This may sound like a stupid question but I have never adjusted the chain on a motorcycle (my only other motorcycle was shaft drive) so I just want to ensure that I do it correctly.
